Plot[]
Following the fight with Kochoindaver from 4th Period: P.E., the Kyurangers nearly gain victory but Champ suddenly went berserk and detached from KyurenOh. Stinger follows Champ and attempt to stop him before Thunderbird sent them off the cliff.
Stinger woke up from his unconsciousness when memories of when Scorpio betrayed his clan penetrate his mind. Both him and Champ noticed the Chamomile flowers nearby them and they remembered their regretful flashback as Stinger looked at the Ikkakuju Kyutama.
During the flashback, they are journeying here and there, searching for Scorpio. Along the way, they encountered a town and simultaneously a woman with a monstrous arm arrived there ahead of them. The town people began attacking that woman because they think she is a monster. That woman, Mika rebel back against them until Stinger and Champ arrived and stop her before she escapes.
Later, Stinger was having hesitation when he heard the same catchphrase that his brother used was said by Mika, curious about her. Champ calls his partner naive and they got into a fight until Mika arrives to eliminate them. Mika suddenly stops when she notices Stinger had a scorpion tail and they nearly got killed when the building suddenly collapsed. Simultaneously Champ noticed the mastermind for that and pursue him/her.
Both Mika and Stinger are all right but they are caught between the rubles and one move could nearly kill them. Stinger then have a chat with Mika and learn about her past. Wanted to save her, Stinger makes a reckless move and leave a chance for Mika to escape.
Mika left to where the town was before but not before saving Stinger from the rubles. When the town people caught her again, Mika has become different. She slaughtered every last people, leaving none alive. Champ and Stinger discovered the horrified scene and decides to burry the town people.
The duo then encountered Mika again but this time she evolves into a Daikaan by Don Armage, giving her a half monstrous appearance. She battled both Stinger and Champ but loses against them. Don Armage's power was making her suffer and she begs Stinger to kill her. Stinger hesitated and Mika dies in regret as Thunderbird revealed his true colours. After burrying Mika, Stinger regrets his action for not being able to save Mika's life and soul. He determines to fight Scorpio if it was his destiny.
Back to present time, Champ went berserk again and went off somewhere on his own. Stinger tries to pursue but encountered Thunderbird on his way. It was revealed that Thunderbird was pulling the strings and he got promoted to Karo due to his undermine tactics of manipulating Mika into having a revenge against her own town people. Stinger was joined by Lucky and the others as they take on Thunderbird.
Stinger uses the Ikkakuju Kyutama that he gain upon Mika's death to finish off Thunderbird. Afterwards, he went on a journey to save Champ.
